LIGNUM Window Tooling
The system sets itself apart through efficiency and ease of
use. Designed to combat the growing skills gap, the Lignum tooling system
utilises ‘Zero Set’ designs, meaning no machine or tooling adjustments are
required between profiles. Allowing for
quick and easy tool changes between operations with no machine setup required.
LIGNUM uses Leitz Marathon coated knives that boast 30%
longer tool life than carbide profile knives. This translates to fewer tool
replacements and thus lower costs. Fast knife changes are possible thanks
to an innovative clamping system, minimising your downtime between profiles.
This innovative system is engineered for precision, productivity
and one pass machining. We have proven that with LIGNUM window tooling,
one operator and a single spindle moulder: you could manufacture up to 16
window components a day. Shear cut designs create superior surface finish and
heavily reduce or eliminate sanding and other rework, assisting the de-nibbing
process for easier and faster painting. Our German-engineered window
tooling and door tooling combines multiple tool operations within one design,
reducing your cycle times.
The Lignum window tooling and door tooling system, empowers
manufacturers to compete effectively in both new build and replacement markets.
This versatility stems from continually testing LIGNUM products to the latest
legislation and building regulations.
All Lignum products are tested for the current building
regulations L, M, Q , PAS:24 and Weathertightness. We are also compliant with
Secured By Design and LIGNUM manufacturers can get licensing from the police as
required.
